for Inceptionhosting's 66 votes, what was the vote breakdown between people voting for services they have with LowEndSpirit vs Inceptionhosting ?

jholycloud

Wait, what ? I win ? Wow, I don't even know what the prize is ^^

Shamli

Congrats to the winners, especially buyvm n ramnode.

No one specified this time, usually, people do specify so I assume it was a majority Inception hosting following the BF/CM deals.

Falzo

thanks @hawc and @Tom for doing this (and all other who might have been involved ofc) - also big thanks to the providers contributing prices.
now this finally forces me to sign up with hetrixtools haha, can't see anything bad in this. perfect prize pick, thanks a lot!

Nekki

@hawc, my prize can be re-drawn, I’m sure other folks will make better use of it than I.

@mexyul - you just won an SSD512 from @VirMach

nullnothere

@hawc, please redraw my prize too as I'm unlikely to use it and someone else can put it to better use.

Thanks to @davidgestiondbi for the prize and just tagging you to notify you that there'll be a new winner.
